Beck’s album, “The Information” was released on Tuesday October 3. The album’s fifteen songs each have an associated music video, released on a DVD with the album. The videos which were uploaded to YouTube were deleted. However, it is possible to stream some of the videos from Beck’s Myspace or from his official site. Most of the intermittently available videos appear to be lo-fi efforts, although ‘Cell Phone’s Dead’ is directed by Michel Gondry. See photographs of Gondry and Beck on set.
The music video for 1000 BPM starts with JMJ, Beck’s bassist, wearing leather and sunglasses looking cool against a slide of the sky. A man in a ferocious-looking bear costume enters and starts rapping. They dance separately. Another, friendlier-looking bear enters and tries to take the microphone from the other bear. This continues, apparently plotless, with occasional appearances of a dancing girl.

Elevator Music
A man stands still in a space suit, his hand up. A tennis player drinks from a straw. Beck’s rapping while holding a rifle, magazine strap over his shoulder. Behind him a man in white practices martial arts. The clip switches between the tennis player, spaceman, Beck, bassist, and martial artist.

No Complaints
Beck sings and plays guitar. A sticker on it says “I love motorcycles”. Back travels between a band with bass, drums and synthesizer, a bear in a poncho playing with a small child (Beck’s son?), and a blonde girl seen through a tambourine. See the No Complaints video online at YouTube.
Think I’m In Love
Beck sings with a sombre-looking man behind him. Men in dresses play with a giant ball. More men in dresses sit around and chat. This video is available at Yahoo! Music and YouTube.

I am pulling my hair out, trying to find out the name of one of the guys in Beck’s video,
“Strange Apparition”.
He’s wearing a black dress, has long dark hair with a beard and mustache and beautiful eyes and I think he has 2 tatoos on his chest. In the begining, he’s leaning on Beck and towards the end of the video, he takes the hair from a wig of another guy and uses it as a fake mustache. It’s hysterical!
Just wondering
